compare your answers from parts A and B. What connections can you make between the size and number of squares in part A and the prime factors in part B?

Answ

Step-by-step explanation:

In part A, 6 squares made up of 4 units represented an area of 24. In part B, the prime factorization of 24 gave 24 = 2 ∙ 2 · 2 · 3, which is equal to 4 · 6. So, the factor that is a perfect square, in this case 4, determines the size of squares needed for the visual model, and the other factor, 6, determines the number of squares of that size.
